It is a trivial amount of code, and I can see at > least author date being useful. One question that arise is what format the date variables should have. Is the raw format (that is "1278400946 +0200") sensible? I've created a patch for this locally, but it has some side effects in messing up the dates stored by 'git commit -C...' which I have not figured out yet; and now I need to get some other stuff done. It might take some days until a revised patch is ready. Feel free to contribute your "trivial amount of code" before I get around to it :-) Regards, Gisle -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
